It also doesn't hurt that the singer knows exactly how to amplify her glow with an unconventional makeup technique, according to Priscilla Ono and Hector Espinal, both global makeup artists for Fenty Beauty. As E! News reported, Ono and Espinal revealed during a recent master class in Los Angeles, California, that Rihanna likes to put highlighter on her ears, not just the high points of her face.

"If you're flirting and you just want to [slowly tuck your hair behind an ear]," Espinal said during the master class, the highlighter on your ears can make you look even more illuminated.

"Anything that's exposed, we loving putting highlight or shimmer on," he added. "Anything I do on the face, I do on the ears."

According to Ono, Rihanna also likes to blend her highlighter with her eye shadow, creating a seamless "wash of color" that covers her cheeks and eyelids. In fact, the singer, who has apparently been testing this technique for a while, even wore the unique look to the 2017 Met Gala, using the same magenta-and-tangerine Fenty Beauty highlighter shades that launched on May 21.

"[Rihanna] loves having [blush] on the cheekbones and applying it on the temples," Ono revealed during the master class. "You really just blur the lines, so you really never know where your eye shadow ends or where your blush starts. It kind of almost gives it this really beautiful halo effect."

It's a daring choice, but one that could be well worth the risk, given the Fenty Beauty founder's head-turning looks on and off the red carpet. At the end of the day, as Rihanna continues to prove, makeup is all about having fun and feeling good, whatever that might look like for you.
